## Why custom_get_email_template_by_id is rated Low

This tool retrieves existing email template data by identifier. It is a read-only operation with no side effects on Marketo assets. There is no capability to modify, delete, execute code, or trigger campaigns. The blast radius of misuse is limited to information exposure of email templates, which poses low security risk in the context of an organization's marketing operations.

From the tool's own definition: "The tool name contains 'get' and 'by_id', indicating it retrieves email template data. The description states it 'Calls the Marketo REST API directly' to fetch a specific email template."

## Use case

AI agents call custom_get_email_template_by_id to retrieve information from Marketo MCP Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
